A.8.6: See the Capacity Breach Before It Breaches You
Control A.8.6 requires resource use to be monitored and adjusted in line with capacity requirements — a control most ISMS programmes evidence with a screenshot of a monitoring tool. This module manages it properly: a register of capacity-tracked resources with utilization, threshold status, and forward-looking forecasts that flag projected breaches before they become availability incidents.
The problem we solve.
Why teams switch to Compliance Enablers for capacity management.
Industry challenges
- Capacity is monitored in tools nobody reviews until something fills up
- A.8.6 audit evidence improvised from dashboards on the day
- Capacity expansions ordered after the outage, not before the breach
- No forecasting, so growth surprises arrive as incidents
How we solve it
- A capacity register with utilization, thresholds, and owners per resource
- Forecasts flag projected breaches with time to act
- Measurement history evidences continuous monitoring and adjustment
- Threshold alerts convert capacity drift into routed, owned work
Built for depth,
out of the box.
Every capability is production-ready on day one. No add-ons, no extra subscriptions.
Capacity Resource Register
Track the resources whose capacity matters — compute, storage, licences, network, people — each with current utilization and a named owner.
Threshold Status
Utilization evaluated against thresholds with OK, warning, and critical statuses, turning raw percentages into actionable states.
Forward Forecasting
Thirty- and ninety-day forecasts project utilization trends, flagging resources expected to breach thresholds while there is still time to expand them.
Measurement History
Record measurements over time with last-measured visibility, so capacity decisions rest on data rather than the loudest anecdote.
Threshold Alerts
Alerts on threshold breaches route capacity problems to owners before users discover them as outages.
Why it matters.
Part of a connected whole.
Capacity Management shares a unified data model with every other module. Zero silos, by design.
